The target amount was $ 10.000 but 6 hours into the show, the $ 22.000 mark was passed.Somewhere between 13:00 and 13:30 EDT, Hayden Panettiere (of Heroes fame) is to make an appearance. Donations can be made at FirstGiving and JustGiving, or you can participate in the auction at eBay."

To help remedy this issue, we have used an automated process to remove collaborators and viewers from the documents that we identified as being affected. Since the impacted documents are now accessible only to you, you will need to re-share the documents manually.

See my journal entry for details on my contact with Google.
